You'll need much more than 300 gallon for a bamboo shark. Depending on what kind, think something 5 or 6 feet wide and even longer so it has enough space.
I'd say sell it and get a smaller shark, like a coral or marbled catshark.

thats what im afraid of, i think of my self as a responseable pet owner. think im going to do a plywood tank, 6x6x2.5, marine board, rubber coated,2x6 stand, 2x6 around the tank, 6x2' glass . tank will be in basement and built behind a wall in storage, or furnace room, so the view will be from the living space.toomanytoys;3951983; said:
If you can make that for him I'd definitely keep him. How big is he rightnow? To big for a temp. 300 gal. rubbermaid while your building the tank? That way there isn't someone rushing you and you wont have to deal with that.
Also, a sheet of plywood comes in 8' x 4'. Instead of cutting the 2' off the length, I'd keep it as 8'. Unless you dont have the room for the extra length. You could still keep the viewing glass 6x2
